Russia – EU seminar on rail transport research,16-18 October. Moscow, VNIIZhT
“Developing intelligent transport management systems on the basis of modern digital telecommunications and satellite technologies, specialist information and control systems”
Presentation by: Sergei Alexandrovich Vinogradov Head of Traction, Traffic & Computerisation Department, VNIIZhT, Candidate of Technical Sciences
Russian Railway Transport Research Institute
Objectives of the ELBRUS automatic management system for freight train traffic on railway routes
• Calculation of the daily forecast energy-saving train traffic schedule
• Automatic transfer of the forecast schedule to the supervisory control system – the “Ural-VNIIZhT” (GID-Ural) completed traffic schedule
• Transfer of the train traffic schedule to locomotives
• Monitoring fulfilment of the traffic schedule
• Analysis of fulfilment of the forecast daily energy-saving train traffic schedule

Standard schedule on the Isilkul – Chelyabinsk route
The standard schedule is formulated twice a year, for the “summer” and “winter” periods

Parameters for formulating the daily schedule
The following parameters are taken into account when the daily schedule is calculated:• the passenger and suburban traffic schedule• the quantity and specialisation of station yards• traffic speed restrictions• intervals between trains• parameters of trains in operation• priorities of each category of trains• time made up by passenger trains• technological breaks for repair and recovery work in
block stations and at stations• station-to-station journey times for optimal energy
consumption.

Economic efficiency
Efficiency is achieved by means of:• harmonising traffic management and supervisory
management• increasing the quality of fulfilment of the train traffic schedule• increasing section and route speeds of traffic• electricity and fuel savings in train traction
Results of an experiment to organise train traffic according to energy-saving schedules on the section from Vkhodnaya (West Siberian Railways) to Chelyabinsk (South Ural Railways) from 15 March to 15 April 2011 Electricity savings for freight and passenger trains were – 22.8 million roubles;About 80% of the total number of freight trains departed at energy-optimal schedule times;The total economic benefit was - 37.63 million roubles.
